Foodie Fridays, organized by Montgomery Parks Community Garden Program, is a monthly speaker series from June – September that highlights food-related topics in Montgomery County. Events are held on the fourth Friday of the month, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. Attendees can check-in and enjoy refreshments from 6:30-7:00pm. Speakers begin promptly at 7:00pm and a Q&A follows the presentations.

This year, presentations will focus on different parts of the food system – from composting and farming to community kitchens and food recovery programs – and how they relate to residents of Montgomery County. Join us to understand more about the systems that feed us while engaging with speakers and community members over dinner and drinks.

Details for September Event: Did you know that 30-40% of food in the United States ends up in the landfill? While there are many ways to reduce waste as food makes its way through the supply chain, some food waste is inevitable. Learn how Compost Crew is turning this waste into an important resource for farmers.
